I have been learning with Ema for almost a year and a half. She listens so attentively & has a natural way of knowing when to add a simple correction or ask a question. She is very good with measuring my level of knowledge and then matching a lesson specific to my understanding. She also makes it very fun by getting to know me as a person and providing homework that matches my interests. I really love Ema as my instructor and feel very lucky!

Hello everbody,
I am an experienced and teaching-passionate language professional offering tailor-made Croatian (all levels), General English (Elementary, Beginner's, Intermediate & Upper-intermediate level) and Russian (Elementary & Intermediate level) Conversation lessons as well as Business English.
The lessons are structured according to student's needs with a variety of interesting topics. A range of different teaching materials is used. I tend to apply mostly visual aids as, according to my experience, they help students most in memorising new words and language structures.
During the lessons we are focusing on further development of communication skills but we are also exploring vocabulary, grammar and culture. We read and discuss various texts, analyze grammatical issues, listen to conversations and songs, play games and quizzes and more than anything, we TALK! That makes conversation lessons always interesting, useful and likeable.
As an open and friendly person with an international family and experience of life in other countries, I enjoy meeting people of other cultures. I would be happy to get a chance to help people all over the world to learn the languages I teach. Perhaps you as well?
Welcome! Dobro došli! Добро пожаловать! Welkom!

We talked in Croatian for 1/2 hour and then went over grammar and vocabulary the rest of the hour. This is the way I want to do the lessons.

My name is Maja and I am from Croatia, currently a master student in English and French translation in Zadar, one of the beauties of Adriatic sea. I have experience in English and Croatian teaching to people of different age, interests and language competence needs.
Language learning is an opportunity to see the world in different perspective, but also, when you learn a new language it is an exchange of traditional, cultural and social experiences that enriches you in many ways.
We can create a pace and style of learning depending on your needs and goals. I hope we can learn together!

Ema is awesome! She is very diligent, offers great teaching tools from multiple places (including YouTube videos) and is also just very fun to talk to (in English and Croatian - as she needs to be very patient with me on the latter). I could not imagine a better teacher. I would recommend Ema highly to anyone.

Hello!
I'm Slađana. I'm 37 years old and I'm a teacher in Primary School, teacher of Croatian language and Teacher of English as a second language (TEFL).
The focus of my lesson is on results. That means that I will let my students know at the beginning of each lesson what result I want to achieve.
It is important for me that my students like me, I want them to be relaxed and confident to talk. They are investing significant time, money and energy into learning language, so they deserve the best possible instructions.
